Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Prediction of treatment response in infantile epileptic spasms syndrome using EEG phase–amplitude coupling

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Treatment selection for infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is complex and multifaceted, and currently no electroencephalogram (EEG) biomarkers can guide this decision by predicting treatment response. We tested the predictive value of phase–amplitude coupling (PAC) as IESS patients are known to have elevated PAC.
